The Winner |
When he was a boy dreamed of bein' a man |
Probably dreamed every thing that a young boy can |
He’s a lover a fighter a saddle bronc rider an all around hell of a hand |
And the spot lights on the sawdust that shines in his brain |
And his dreams are the bones in his soul |
And there’s rivers of dance halls and wild red eyeballs on the road to the big |
rodeo |
Well the chutes are all loaded the riggins are set Lord the cowboy’s ready to |
ride |
Well it’s pull down his hat and he spit out his chew |
There’ll be a hot time in the old town tonight |
The horse in chute eight he’s a kickin' the gate |
Lord he’s big and he’s hard and he’s crazy |
And the chute boss is a hollerin' |
Come on boys get on 'em I’m commencin' to think you’re all lazy |
And the spot lights on the sawdust… |
With his spurs in his shoulders the horse comes unglued |
It’s like ridin' some kind of explosion |
And the bronc he starts spinnin' the cowboy’s a grinnin' |
Doin' fine there in all the commotion |
The crowd’s on its feet the whistle she blows |
And the pickup men rush to his side |
As they pull him away he hears one of 'em say |
Looks to me like a winnin' ride |
And the spot lights on the sawdust that shines in his brain |
And his dreams are the bones in his soul |
And it’s all comin' true right in front of his eyes |
Cause he’s the feller who won the big rodeo |
